In-depth city guide

Understand Nanjing before choosing a school

A city is more than a school location. It shapes what students see, who they meet, and how they grow outside the classroom.

Geography and Urban Layout

Nanjing sits on the Yangtze River and works as one of China's strongest university cities outside Beijing and Shanghai. It combines riverfront space, old capital history, research universities, museums, lower costs than Shanghai, and fast high-speed rail access across the Yangtze River Delta.

History and Cultural Character

Nanjing has served as a capital in several periods of Chinese history. City walls, Ming Xiaoling, museums, Republic-era architecture, universities, and riverside districts make it an excellent place to understand Chinese history with less pressure than Beijing.

Transport and Weekend Mobility

Nanjing is a high-speed rail powerhouse. Shanghai, Suzhou, Hangzhou, Hefei, Yangzhou, and other cities are easy weekend routes. The metro also connects many campuses and historic districts.

Signature Places and Youth Experiences

Yangtze River Delta base: Nanjing gives students historic depth while keeping Shanghai, Suzhou, and Hangzhou close by rail.

Ancient capital atmosphere: Walls, museums, tree-lined roads, and old campuses make Nanjing calm but serious.

Affordable research city: Nanjing often feels more manageable than Shanghai while keeping strong university quality.
